Likewise, values such as maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) or time to reach maximum plasma concentration (Tmax), or total area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC(O-co)) may vary from subject to subject. Due to this variability, the amount necessary to constitute "a therapeutically effective amount" of ibrutinib may vary from subject to subject.

[0026] The terms "co-administration" or the like, as used herein, are meant to encompass administration of the selected therapeutic agents to a single patient, and are intended to include treatment regimens in which the agents are administered by the same or different route of administration or at the same or different time.

[0027] The terms "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount," as used herein, refer to a sufficient amount of an agent or a compound being administered which will relieve to some extent one or more of the symptoms of the disease or condition being treated. The result can be reduction and/or alleviation of the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease, or any other desired alteration of a biological system. For example, an "effective amount" for therapeutic uses is the amount of the composition including a compound as disclosed herein required to provide a clinically significant decrease in disease symptoms without undue adverse side effects. An appropriate "effective amount" in any individual case may be determined using techniques, such as a dose escalation study. The term "therapeutically effective amount" includes, for example, a prophylactically effective amount. An "effective amount" of a compound disclosed herein is an amount effective to achieve a desired pharmacologic effect or therapeutic improvement without undue adverse side effects. It is understood that "an effect amount" or "a therapeutically effective amount" can vary from subject to subject, due to variation in metabolism of ibrutinib, age, weight, general condition of the subject, the condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. By way of example only, therapeutically effective amounts may be determined by routine experimentation, including but not limited to a dose escalation clinical trial.

[0028] The terms "enhance" or "enhancing" means to increase or prolong either in potency or duration a desired effect. By way of example, "enhancing" the effect of

therapeutic agents refers to the ability to increase or prolong, either in potency or duration, the effect of therapeutic agents on during treatment of a disease, disorder or condition. An "enhancing-effective amount," as used herein, refers to an amount adequate to enhance the effect of a therapeutic agent in inducing tumor-specific immunological memory in a disease, disorder or condition. When used in a patient, amounts effective for this use will depend on the severity and course of the disease, disorder or condition, previous therapy, the patient's health status and response to the drugs, and the judgment of the treating physician.

[0029] The terms "subject", "patient" and "individual" are used interchangeably. As used herein, they refer to an animal. By way of example only, a subject may be, but is not limited to, a mammal including, but not limited to, a human. The terms do not require the supervision (whether continuous or intermittent) of a medical professional.

[0030] The terms "treat," "treating" or "treatment", as used herein, include alleviating, abating or ameliorating a disease or condition symptoms, preventing additional symptoms, ameliorating or preventing the underlying metabolic causes of symptoms, inhibiting the disease or condition, e.g., arresting the development of the disease or condition, relieving the disease or condition, causing regression of the disease or condition, relieving a condition caused by the disease or condition, or stopping the symptoms of the disease or condition. The terms "treat," "treating" or "treatment", include, but are not limited to, prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatments.

[0031] As used herein, the IC50 refers to an amount, concentration or dosage of a particular test compound that achieves a 50% inhibition of a maximal response, such as inhibition of Btk, in an assay that measures such response.

[0032] As used herein, EC50 refers to a dosage, concentration or amount of a particular test compound that elicits a dose-dependent response at 50% of maximal expression of a particular response that is induced, provoked or potentiated by the particular test compound.

[0033] As used herein, "cancer recurrence", "cancer relapse", "relapsed or refractory disease" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a return of cancer following treatment, and includes return of cancer in the primary organ, as well as distant recurrence, where the cancer returns outside of the primary organ.

[00353] In some embodiments, solid dosage forms, e.g., tablets, effervescent tablets, and capsules, are prepared by mixing particles of ibrutinib, with one or more pharmaceutical excipients to form a bulk blend composition. When referring to these bulk blend

compositions as homogeneous, it is meant that the particles of ibrutinib are dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition can be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms, such as tablets, pills, and capsules. In some embodiments, the individual unit dosages also include film coatings, which disintegrate upon oral ingestion or upon contact with diluent. These formulations can be manufactured by conventional pharmacological techniques.

[00354] Conventional pharmacological techniques include, e.g., one or a combination of methods: (1) dry mixing, (2) direct compression, (3) milling, (4) dry or non-aqueous granulation, (5) wet granulation, or (6) fusion. See, e.g., Lachman et al., The Theory and Practice of Industrial Pharmacy (1986). Other methods include, e.g., spray drying, pan coating, melt granulation, granulation, fluidized bed spray drying or coating (e.g., wurster coating), tangential coating, top spraying, tableting, extruding and the like.

Thus, the above-listed additives should be taken as merely exemplary, and not limiting, of the types of additives that can be included in solid dosage forms described herein. The amounts of such additives can be readily

determined by one skilled in the art, according to the particular properties desired.

[00369] In other embodiments, one or more layers of the pharmaceutical formulation are plasticized. Illustratively, a plasticizer is generally a high boiling point solid or liquid. Suitable plasticizers can be added from about 0.01% to about 50% by weight (w/w) of the coating composition. Plasticizers include, but are not limited to, diethyl phthalate, citrate esters, polyethylene glycol, glycerol, acetylated glycerides, triacetin, polypropylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate, dibutyl sebacate, stearic acid, stearol, stearate, and castor oil.

In various embodiments, compressed tablets which are designed to dissolve in the mouth will include one or more flavoring agents. In other embodiments, the compressed tablets will include a film surrounding the final compressed tablet. In some embodiments, the film coating can provide a delayed release of ibrutinib or the second agent, from the formulation. In other embodiments, the film coating aids in patient compliance (e.g., Opadry ® coatings or sugar coating). Film coatings including Opadry ® typically range from about 1% to about 3% of the tablet weight. In other

embodiments, the compressed tablets include one or more excipients.

[00371] In some embodiments, a capsule is prepared, for example, by placing the bulk blend of the formulation of ibrutinib or the second agent, described above, inside of a capsule. In some embodiments, the formulations (non-aqueous suspensions and solutions) are placed in a soft gelatin capsule. In other embodiments, the formulations are placed in standard gelatin capsules or non-gelatin capsules such as capsules comprising HPMC. In other embodiments, the formulation is placed in a sprinkle capsule, wherein the capsule can be swallowed whole or the capsule can be opened and the contents sprinkled on food prior to eating. In some embodiments, the therapeutic dose is split into multiple (e.g., two, three, or four) capsules. In some embodiments, the entire dose of the formulation is delivered in a capsule form.

[00372] In various embodiments, the particles of ibrutinib, and one or more excipients are dry blended and compressed into a mass, such as a tablet, having a hardness sufficient to provide a pharmaceutical composition that substantially disintegrates within less than about 30 minutes, less than about 35 minutes, less than about 40 minutes, less than about 45 minutes, less than about 50 minutes, less than about 55 minutes, or less than about 60 minutes, after oral administration, thereby releasing the formulation into the gastrointestinal fluid.

300, PEG 400, PEG 600, PEG 1450, PEG 3350, and PEG 800, stearic acid, propylene glycol, oleic acid, and triacetin are incorporated into the microencapsulation material. In other embodiments, the microencapsulating material useful for delaying the release of the pharmaceutical compositions is from the USP or the National Formulary (NF). In yet other embodiments, the microencapsulation material is Klucel. In still other embodiments, the microencapsulation material is methocel.

[00377] In some embodiments, microencapsulated compounds of any of ibrutinib, are formulated by methods known by one of ordinary skill in the art. Such known methods include, e.g., spray drying processes, spinning disk-solvent processes, hot melt processes, spray chilling methods, fluidized bed, electrostatic deposition, centrifugal extrusion, rotational suspension separation, polymerization at liquid-gas or solid-gas interface, pressure extrusion, or spraying solvent extraction bath. In addition to these, several chemical techniques, e.g., complex coacervation, solvent evaporation, polymer-polymer

incompatibility, interfacial polymerization in liquid media, in situ polymerization, in-liquid drying, and desolvation in liquid media could also be used. Furthermore, in some

embodiments, other methods such as roller compaction, extrusion/spheronization, coacervation, or nanoparticle coating are used.

[00378] In one embodiment, the particles of compounds of any of ibrutinib, are microencapsulated prior to being formulated into one of the above forms. In still another embodiment, some or most of the particles are coated prior to being further formulated by using standard coating procedures, such as those described in Remington 's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 20th Edition (2000).

[00379] In other embodiments, the solid dosage formulations of the compounds of any of ibrutinib, are plasticized (coated) with one or more layers. Illustratively, a plasticizer is generally a high boiling point solid or liquid. Suitable plasticizers can be added from about 0.01% to about 50%) by weight (w/w) of the coating composition. Plasticizers include, but are not limited to, diethyl phthalate, citrate esters, polyethylene glycol, glycerol, acetylated glycerides, triacetin, polypropylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate, dibutyl sebacate, stearic acid, stearol, stearate, and castor oil.

[00380] In other embodiments, a powder including the formulations with a compound of any of ibrutinib, described herein, is formulated to include one or more pharmaceutical excipients and flavors. In some embodiments, such a powder is prepared, for example, by mixing the formulation and optional pharmaceutical excipients to form a bulk blend composition. Additional embodiments also include a suspending agent and/or a wetting agent. This bulk blend is uniformly subdivided into unit dosage packaging or multi-dosage packaging units.

[00381] In still other embodiments, effervescent powders are also prepared in accordance with the present disclosure. Effervescent salts have been used to disperse medicines in water for oral administration. Effervescent salts are granules or coarse powders containing a medicinal agent in a dry mixture, usually composed of sodium bicarbonate, citric acid and/or tartaric acid. When salts of the compositions described herein are added to water, the acids and the base react to liberate carbon dioxide gas, thereby causing

"effervescence." Examples of effervescent salts include, e.g., the following ingredients:

sodium bicarbonate or a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate, citric acid and/or tartaric acid. Any acid-base combination that results in the liberation of carbon dioxide can be used in place of the combination of sodium bicarbonate and citric and tartaric acids, as long as the ingredients were suitable for pharmaceutical use and result in a pH of about 6.0 or higher.

[00382] In some embodiments, the solid dosage forms described herein can be formulated as enteric coated delayed release oral dosage forms, i.e., as an oral dosage form of a pharmaceutical composition as described herein which utilizes an enteric coating to affect release in the small intestine of the gastrointestinal tract. In some embodiments, the enteric coated dosage form is a compressed or molded or extruded tablet/mold (coated or uncoated) containing granules, powder, pellets, beads or particles of the active ingredient and/or other composition components, which are themselves coated or uncoated. In some embodiments, the enteric coated oral dosage form is a capsule (coated or uncoated) containing pellets, beads or granules of the solid carrier or the composition, which are themselves coated or uncoated.

[00383] The term "delayed release" as used herein refers to the delivery so that the release can be accomplished at some generally predictable location in the intestinal tract more distal to that which would have been accomplished if there had been no delayed release alterations. In some embodiments the method for delay of release is coating. Any coatings should be applied to a sufficient thickness such that the entire coating does not dissolve in the gastrointestinal fluids at pH below about 5, but does dissolve at pH about 5 and above. It is expected that any anionic polymer exhibiting a pH-dependent solubility profile can be used as an enteric coating in the methods and compositions described herein to achieve delivery to the lower gastrointestinal tract. In some embodiments the polymers described herein are anionic carboxylic polymers. In other embodiments, the polymers and compatible mixtures thereof, and some of their properties, include, but are not limited to:

[00384] Shellac, also called purified lac, a refined product obtained from the resinous secretion of an insect. This coating dissolves in media of pH >7;

[00385] Acrylic polymers. The performance of acrylic polymers (primarily their solubility in biological fluids) can vary based on the degree and type of substitution.

Examples of suitable acrylic polymers include methacrylic acid copolymers and ammonium methacrylate copolymers. The Eudragit series E, L, S, RL, RS and E (Rohm Pharma) are available as solubilized in organic solvent, aqueous dispersion, or dry powders. The Eudragit series RL, NE, and RS are insoluble in the gastrointestinal tract but are permeable and are used primarily for colonic targeting. The Eudragit series E dissolve in the stomach. The Eudragit series L, L-30D and S are insoluble in stomach and dissolve in the intestine;

[00386] Cellulose Derivatives. Examples of suitable cellulose derivatives are: ethyl cellulose; reaction mixtures of partial acetate esters of cellulose with phthalic anhydride. The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) dissolves in pH >6. Aquateric (FMC) is an aqueous based system and is a spray dried CAP psuedolatex with particles <1 μπι. Other components in Aquateric can include pluronics, Tweens, and acetylated monoglycerides. Other suitable cellulose derivatives include: cellulose acetate trimellitate (Eastman); methylcellulose (Pharmacoat, Methocel); hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate (HPMCP); hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose succinate (HPMCS); and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetate succinate (e.g., AQOAT (Shin Etsu)). The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, HPMCP such as, HP-50, HP-55, HP-55S, HP-55F grades are suitable. The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, suitable grades of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetate succinate include, but are not limited to, AS- LG (LF), which dissolves at pH 5, AS-MG (MF), which dissolves at pH 5.5, and AS-HG (HF), which dissolves at higher pH. These polymers are offered as granules, or as fine powders for aqueous dispersions; Poly Vinyl Acetate Phthalate (PVAP). PVAP dissolves in pH >5, and it is much less permeable to water vapor and gastric fluids.

[00387] In some embodiments, the coating can, and usually does, contain a plasticizer and possibly other coating excipients such as colorants, talc, and/or magnesium stearate, which are well known in the art. Suitable plasticizers include triethyl citrate (Citroflex 2), triacetin (glyceryl triacetate), acetyl triethyl citrate (Citroflec A2), Carbowax 400 (polyethylene glycol 400), diethyl phthalate, tributyl citrate, acetylated monoglycerides, glycerol, fatty acid esters, propylene glycol, and dibutyl phthalate. In particular, anionic carboxylic acrylic polymers usually will contain 10-25% by weight of a plasticizer, especially dibutyl phthalate, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate and triacetin. Conventional coating techniques such as spray or pan coating are employed to apply coatings. The coating thickness must be sufficient to ensure that the oral dosage form remains intact until the desired site of topical delivery in the intestinal tract is reached.

[00388] In some embodiments, colorants, detackifiers, surfactants, antifoaming agents, lubricants (e.g., carnuba wax or PEG) are added to the coatings besides plasticizers to solubilize or disperse the coating material, and to improve coating performance and the coated product.

[00389] In other embodiments, the formulations described herein, which include ibrutinib, are delivered using a pulsatile dosage form. A pulsatile dosage form is capable of providing one or more immediate release pulses at predetermined time points after a controlled lag time or at specific sites. Many other types of controlled release systems known to those of ordinary skill in the art and are suitable for use with the formulations described herein. Examples of such delivery systems include, e.g., polymer-based systems, such as polylactic and polyglycolic acid, plyanhydrides and polycaprolactone; porous matrices, nonpolymer-based systems that are lipids, including sterols, such as cholesterol, cholesterol esters and fatty acids, or neutral fats, such as mono-, di- and triglycerides; hydrogel release systems; silastic systems; peptide-based systems; wax coatings, bioerodible dosage forms, compressed tablets using conventional binders and the like. See, e.g., Liberman et al., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, 2 Ed., Vol. 1, pp. 209-214 (1990); Singh et al., Encyclopedia of Pharmaceutical Technology, 2 nd Ed., pp. 751-753 (2002); U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,327,725, 4,624,848, 4,968,509, 5,461,140, 5,456,923, 5,516,527, 5,622,721, 5,686,105, 5,700,410, 5,977,175, 6,465,014 and 6,932,983.

[00400] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical formulations described herein can be self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS). Emulsions are dispersions of one immiscible phase in another, usually in the form of droplets. Generally, emulsions are created by vigorous mechanical dispersion. SEDDS, as opposed to emulsions or microemulsions, spontaneously form emulsions when added to an excess of water without any external mechanical dispersion or agitation. An advantage of SEDDS is that only gentle mixing is required to distribute the droplets throughout the solution. Additionally, water or the aqueous phase can be added just prior to administration, which ensures stability of an unstable or hydrophobic active ingredient. Thus, the SEDDS provides an effective delivery system for oral and parenteral delivery of hydrophobic active ingredients. In some embodiments, SEDDS provide improvements in the bioavailability of hydrophobic active ingredients. Methods of producing self-emulsifying dosage forms are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,858,401, 6,667,048, and 6,960,563, each of which is specifically incorporated by reference.

[00401] It is to be appreciated that there is overlap between the above-listed additives used in the aqueous dispersions or suspensions described herein, since a given additive is often classified differently by different practitioners in the field, or is commonly used for any of several different functions. Thus, the above-listed additives should be taken as merely exemplary, and not limiting, of the types of additives that can be included in formulations described herein. The amounts of such additives can be readily determined by one skilled in the art, according to the particular properties desired.

Intranasal Formulations [00402] Intranasal formulations are known in the art and are described in, for example,

U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,476, 116, 5,116,817 and 6,391,452, each of which is specifically incorporated by reference. Formulations that include ibrutinib, which are prepared according to these and other techniques well-known in the art are prepared as solutions in saline, employing benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, fluorocarbons, and/or other solubilizing or dispersing agents known in the art. See, for example, Ansel, H. C. et al., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems, Sixth Ed. (1995). Preferably these compositions and

formulations are prepared with suitable nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable ingredients. These ingredients are known to those skilled in the preparation of nasal dosage forms and some of these can be found in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21st edition, 2005, a standard reference in the field. The choice of suitable carriers is highly dependent upon the exact nature of the nasal dosage form desired, e.g., solutions, suspensions, ointments, or gels. Nasal dosage forms generally contain large amounts of water in addition to the active ingredient. In some embodiments, minor amounts of other ingredients such as pH adjusters, emulsifiers or dispersing agents, preservatives, surfactants, gelling agents, or buffering and other stabilizing and solubilizing agents are also present. The nasal dosage form should be isotonic with nasal secretions.

[00403] In some embodiments, for administration by inhalation described herein, the pharmaceutical compositions are in a form as an aerosol, a mist or a powder. Pharmaceutical compositions described herein are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or a nebulizer, with the use of a suitable propellant, e.g., dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas. In some embodiments, in the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit is determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. In some embodiments, capsules and cartridges of, such as, by way of example only, gelatin for use in an inhaler or insufflator are formulated containing a powder mix of the compound described herein and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch.

Buccal Formulations

[00404] In some embodiments, buccal formulations are administered using a variety of formulations known in the art. For example, such formulations include, but are not limited to, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,229,447, 4,596,795, 4,755,386, and 5,739, 136, each of which is specifically incorporated by reference. In addition, the buccal dosage forms described herein can further include a bioerodible (hydrolysable) polymeric carrier that also serves to adhere the dosage form to the buccal mucosa. The buccal dosage form is fabricated so as to erode gradually over a predetermined time period, wherein the delivery is provided essentially throughout. Buccal drug delivery, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, avoids the

disadvantages encountered with oral drug administration, e.g., slow absorption, degradation of the active agent by fluids present in the gastrointestinal tract and/or first-pass inactivation in the liver. With regard to the bioerodible (hydrolysable) polymeric carrier, it will be appreciated that virtually any such carrier can be used, so long as the desired drug release profile is not compromised, and the carrier is compatible with ibrutinib, and any other components that are present in the buccal dosage unit. Generally, the polymeric carrier comprises hydrophilic (water-soluble and water-swellable) polymers that adhere to the wet surface of the buccal mucosa. Examples of polymeric carriers useful herein include acrylic acid polymers and co, e.g., those known as "carbomers" (Carbopol ® , which can be obtained from B.F. Goodrich, is one such polymer). In some embodiments, other components are also incorporated into the buccal dosage forms described herein include, but are not limited to, disintegrants, diluents, binders, lubricants, flavoring, colorants, preservatives, and the like. In some embodiments, for buccal or sublingual administration, the compositions are in the form of tablets, lozenges, or gels formulated in a conventional manner.

Transdermal Formulations

[00405] In some embodiments, transdermal formulations described herein are administered using a variety of devices which have been described in the art. For example, such devices include, but are not limited to, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,598, 122, 3,598, 123, 3,710,795, 3,731,683, 3,742,951, 3,814,097, 3,921,636, 3,972,995, 3,993,072, 3,993,073, 3,996,934, 4,031,894, 4,060,084, 4,069,307, 4,077,407, 4,201,211, 4,230,105, 4,292,299, 4,292,303, 5,336,168, 5,665,378, 5,837,280, 5,869,090, 6,923,983, 6,929,801 and 6,946,144, each of which is specifically incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[00406] In some embodiments, the transdermal dosage forms described herein incorporate certain pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are conventional in the art. In some embodiments, the transdermal formulations described herein include at least three components: (1) a formulation of a compound of ibrutinib; (2) a penetration enhancer; and (3) an aqueous adjuvant. In addition, transdermal formulations can include additional

components such as, but not limited to, gelling agents, creams and ointment bases, and the like. In some embodiments, the transdermal formulation can further include a woven or non- woven backing material to enhance absorption and prevent the removal of the transdermal formulation from the skin. In other embodiments, the transdermal formulations described herein can maintain a saturated or supersaturated state to promote diffusion into the skin. [00407] In some embodiments, formulations suitable for transdermal administration of compounds described herein employ transdermal delivery devices and transdermal delivery patches and can be lipophilic emulsions or buffered, aqueous solutions, dissolved and/or dispersed in a polymer or an adhesive. In some embodiments, such patches are constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents. Still further, transdermal delivery of the compounds described herein can be accomplished by means of iontophoretic patches and the like. Additionally, transdermal patches can provide controlled delivery of ibrutinib. The rate of absorption can be slowed by using rate-controlling membranes or by trapping the compound within a polymer matrix or gel. Conversely, absorption enhancers can be used to increase absorption. An absorption enhancer or carrier can include absorbable pharmaceutically acceptable solvents to assist passage through the skin. For example, transdermal devices are in the form of a bandage comprising a backing member, a reservoir containing the compound optionally with carriers, optionally a rate controlling barrier to deliver the compound to the skin of the host at a controlled and predetermined rate over a prolonged period of time, and means to secure the device to the skin.

Injectable Formulations

[00408] In some embodiments, formulations include a combination of a Btk inhibitor

(e.g. ibrutinib) and an immunomodulating agent, suitable for intramuscular, subcutaneous, or intravenous injection include physiologically acceptable sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, and sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers, diluents, solvents, or vehicles including water, ethanol, polyols (propyleneglycol, polyethylene-glycol, glycerol, cremophor and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil) and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants. In some embodiments, formulations suitable for subcutaneous injection also contain additives such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispensing agents. Prevention of the growth of microorganisms can be ensured by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, such as parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, and the like. In some embodiments, it is also desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form can be brought about by the use of agents delaying absorption, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin. [00409] In some embodiments, for intravenous injections, compounds described herein are formulated in aqueous solutions, preferably in physiologically compatible buffers such as Hank's solution, Ringer's solution, or physiological saline buffer. For transmucosal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art. In some embodiments, for other parenteral injections, appropriate formulations include aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, preferably with physiologically compatible buffers or excipients. Such excipients are generally known in the art.

[00410] In some embodiments, parenteral injections involve bolus injection or continuous infusion. In some embodiments, formulations for injection are presented in unit dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition described herein is in a form suitable for parenteral injection as a sterile suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and contains formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Pharmaceutical formulations for parenteral administration include aqueous solutions of the active compounds in water-soluble form. Additionally, in some embodiments, suspensions of the active compounds are prepared as appropriate oily injection suspensions. Suitable lipophilic solvents or vehicles include fatty oils such as sesame oil, or synthetic fatty acid esters, such as ethyl oleate or triglycerides, or liposomes. In some embodiments, aqueous injection suspensions contain substances which increase the viscosity of the suspension, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sorbitol, or dextran. Optionally, in some embodiments, the suspension also contains suitable stabilizers or agents which increase the solubility of the compounds to allow for the preparation of highly concentrated solutions. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the active ingredient is in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile pyrogen-free water, before use.

Other Formulations

[00411] In certain embodiments, delivery systems for pharmaceutical compounds are employed, such as, for example, liposomes and emulsions. In certain embodiments, compositions provided herein can also include an mucoadhesive polymer, selected from among, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, carbomer (acrylic acid polymer),

poly(methylmethacrylate), polyacrylamide, polycarbophil, acrylic acid/butyl acrylate copolymer, sodium alginate and dextran.

[00412] In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered topically and can be formulated into a variety of topically administrable compositions, such as solutions, suspensions, lotions, gels, pastes, medicated sticks, balms, creams or ointments. Such pharmaceutical compounds can contain solubilizers, stabilizers, tonicity enhancing agents, buffers and preservatives.

[00413] In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are formulated in rectal compositions such as enemas, rectal gels, rectal foams, rectal aerosols, suppositories, jelly suppositories, or retention enemas, containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides, as well as synthetic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, PEG, and the like. In suppository forms of the compositions, a low-melting wax such as, but not limited to, a mixture of fatty acid glycerides, optionally in combination with cocoa butter is first melted.

In some embodiments, a treatment-naive cancer patient is a patient who has not received a treatment related to a cancer, a patient who has not received a TEC inhibitor (e.g. Btk inhibitor such as ibrutinib, Itk inhibitor) treatment, a patient who has not received an immunomodulating agent, or a patient who has not received any combinations of a TEC inhibitor, immunomodulating agent, and/or an additional anticancer agent described elsewhere herein.

[00433] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical combination and/or compositions described herein are administered to cancer patients who have already received one or more prior treatments. In some embodiments, the one or more prior treatments include treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and include treatments with one or more of the anticancer agents described elsewhere herein.

[00434] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical combination and/or compositions disclosed herein are administered to patients for prophylactic, therapeutic, or maintenance treatment. In some embodiments, the compositions disclosed herein are administered for therapeutic applications. In some embodiments, the compositions disclosed herein are administered for therapeutic applications. In some embodiments, the compositions disclosed herein are administered as a maintenance therapy, for example for a patient in remission. [00435] In some embodiments, a TEC inhibitor (e.g. Btk inhibitor, Itk inhibitor) and the immunomodulating agent are administered as a maintenance therapy. In some instances, the TEC inhibitor is a Btk inhibitor. In some embodiments, the Btk inhibitor and the immunomodulating agent are administered as a maintenance therapy. In some instances, the Btk inhibitor is ibrutinib. In some embodiments, ibrutinib and the immunomodulating agent are administered as a maintenance therapy.

[00436] In the case wherein the patient's status does improve, upon the doctor's discretion the administration of the compounds may be given continuously; alternatively, the dose of drug being administered may be temporarily reduced or temporarily suspended for a certain length of time (i.e., a "drug holiday"). The length of the drug holiday can vary between 2 days and 1 year, including by way of example only, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 10 days, 12 days, 15 days, 20 days, 28 days, 35 days, 50 days, 70 days, 100 days, 120 days, 150 days, 180 days, 200 days, 250 days, 280 days, 300 days, 320 days, 350 days, or 365 days. The dose reduction during a drug holiday may be from 10%- 100%, including, by way of example only, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 100%.

[00437] Once improvement of the patient's conditions has occurred, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or the frequency of

administration, or both, can be reduced, as a function of the symptoms, to a level at which the improved disease, disorder or condition is retained. Patients can, however, require

intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrence of symptoms.

[00438] The amount of a given agent that will correspond to such an amount will vary depending upon factors such as the particular compound, the severity of the disease, a biomarker profile (e.g. Thl :Th2 ratio, or any of the biomarkers described herein), the identity (e.g., weight) of the subject or host in need of treatment, but can nevertheless be routinely determined in a manner known in the art according to the particular circumstances

surrounding the case, including, e.g., the specific agent being administered, the route of administration, and the subject or host being treated. In general, however, doses employed for adult human treatment will typically be in the range of 0.02-5000 mg per day, or from about 1-1500 mg per day. The desired dose may conveniently be presented in a single dose or as divided doses administered simultaneously (or over a short period of time) or at appropriate intervals, for example as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day.

[00439] The pharmaceutical combination and/or composition described herein may be in unit dosage forms suitable for single administration of precise dosages. In unit dosage form, the formulation is divided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of one or more compound. The unit dosage may be in the form of a package containing discrete quantities of the formulation. Non-limiting examples are packaged tablets or capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Aqueous suspension compositions can be packaged in single-dose non- reclosable containers. Alternatively, multiple-dose reclosable containers can be used, in which case it is typical to include a preservative in the composition. By way of example only, formulations for parenteral injection may be presented in unit dosage form, which include, but are not limited to ampoules, or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative.

[00440] The foregoing ranges are merely suggestive, as the number of variables in regard to an individual treatment regime is large, and considerable excursions from these recommended values are not uncommon. Such dosages may be altered depending on a number of variables, not limited to the activity of the compound used, the disease or condition to be treated, the mode of administration, the requirements of the individual subject, the severity of the disease or condition being treated, and the judgment of the practitioner.

[00441] Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such therapeutic regimens can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, the determination of the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio between LD50 and ED50. Compounds exhibiting high therapeutic indices are preferred. The data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies can be used in formulating a range of dosage for use in human. The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED50 with minimal toxicity. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.

EXAMPLES

[00448] The following ingredients, formulations, processes and procedures for practicing the methods disclosed herein correspond to that described above.

Example 1: Ibrutinib Enhances the Anti-tumor Efficacy of CTLA-4 Blockade in

Lymphoma and Colon Cancer Models [00449] In the present study, it was investigated whether ibrutinib could enhance the anti-tumor effect of an anti-mouse CTLA-4 antibody (aCTLA-4 or ipilimumab) in the A20 B-cell lymphoma and the CT26 colon cancer models.

Methods

Cell lines and animal studies

[00450] A20 B-cell lymphoma and the CT26 colon carcinoma are tumor cell lines syngeneic to the BALB/c mice. Cells were cultured in complete media (RPMI media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, antibiotics and 55 μΜ 2-mercaptoethanol). A20 cells express Btk but are insensitive to ibrutinib in vitro (IC 50 >10 mM). Mice were implanted subcutaneously on the back with 5 x 10 6 A20 cells or on the flank with 5 x 10 5 CT26 cells on day 0. Treatment began when the average tumor volume reached 80-85 mm (D x d 2 x 0.4). Mice were dosed daily with oral ibrutinib (24 mg/kg) or vehicle and the anti-mouse CTLA-4 antibody 9D9 (Bio X Cell), or an IgG isotype control (100 μg/mouse) given every 2 days by intraperitoneal injections. Tumor volume was measured and survival recorded for up to 2 months after tumor inoculation. Animals were euthanized when tumors reached 2000 mm 3 per IACUC protocol.

IFN-γ ELISA

[00451] Single-cell suspensions of spleens were treated with ACK lysis buffer to remove red blood cells. Tumor cells were incubated at 37°C for 20 min in complete media containing 50 μg/mL mitomycin C followed by washing. Each well of a 96-well round bottom plate was seeded with 5 x 10 5 splenocytes with or without 5 X 10 5 mitomycin C- treated tumor cells in complete media containing 5% serum and 0.5 μg/mL anti-mouse CD28 antibody. After 48 h of culture, the concentration of IFN-γ in the supernatant was determined using the Mouse IFN-gamma Quantikine ELISA Kit (R&D Systems).

Flow cytometry analysis of TILs

[00452] CT26 tumors were harvested on the 6 th day of treatment, weighed, minced, and reduced to single-cell suspensions on 70 mm strainers. A majority of the tumor cells, red blood cells, and debris were removed by density gradient centrifugation using Lympholyte®- M (Cedarlane Labs). The partially purified tumor-infiltrating leukocytes were incubated for 3 h with complete media containing GolgiStop™ (BD Biosciences). Cells were then Fc- blocked, incubated with fixable aqua dead cell stain (Life Technologies), stained with fluorochrome-labeled antibodies for surface and intracellular markers, and fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde. Cells samples with CountBright™ Counting Beads (Life Technologies) were acquired on a FACSCanto™ II cytometer (BD Biosciences). Data were analyzed using the FlowJo VI 0 software (Flow Jo, LLC)

Results

[00453] As provided herein in the B-cell lymphoma model, aCTLA-4 had single-agent activity, while aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib led to more rapid and durable responses.

[00454] Figures 1 A-1E show that ibrutinib enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of aCTLA-4 against the A20 B-cell lymphoma. Mice implanted subcutaneously with A20 cells received ibrutinib or vehicle (PO, QD x 13) and 100 mg aCTLA-4 or IgG (IP, Q2D x 6) from days 5 to 17 (arrows). The number of animals that remained tumor-free as of day 68 is indicated in the plot.

[00455] As provided herein in the colon cancer model, aCTLA-4 was not effective in controlling the disease, but aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib led to the regression of many large tumors. In addition, aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib increased tumor infiltration by CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, many are Ki-67 + and IFN-Y + . 60% of animals treated with the combination remained disease- free until the end of study, and aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib generated a robust, tumor-specific immunologic memory.

[00456] Figures 2A-2G show that ibrutinib enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of aCTLA-4 against the CT26 colon carcinoma. Mice implanted sc with CT26 cells received ibrutinib or vehicle (PO, QD x 27) and 100 mg aCTLA-4 or IgG (IP, Q2D x 17) from day 7- 42 (arrows, schedule 1 (S I)). S2 regimen was identical to S I except that ibrutinib treatment began on day 1 1. The number of animals that remained tumor-free on day 73 are indicated (* O.003).

[00457] Figure 3 shows that aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib generated a robust, tumor-specific immunologic memory. Spleens were harvested on day 73 from naive animals or from tumor- free animals on the study described in Fig. 2. Splenocytes were co-cultured with CT26 cells, irrelevant 4T1 cells, or with media alone for 48 h. The concentration of IFN-γ secreted into the culture media was measured by ELISA.

[00458] Figures 4A-4R show that aCTLA-4 + ibrutinib increased tumor infiltration by

Ki-67 + /IFN-y + CD4 + and CD8 + T cells. Mice (6/group) implanted subcutaneously with CT26 cells received ibrutinib or vehicle (PO, QD x 5) and 100 μg aCTLA-4 or IgG (IP, Q2D x 3) from days 7-12 (arrows, S I). S2 regimen was identical to S I except that ibrutinib treatment began on day 1 1. Animals were sacrificed on day 13 (dotted lines) (Fig. 4A). Tumors were harvested for flow cytometry analysis of tumor-infiltrating T cells. On the scattered dot plots, the dots that correspond to the top 3 responders of each group are circled and labeled with rankings. Response to a treatment was judged primarily by the final size of the tumor, and secondarily by the growth rate of the tumor between the last 2 measurements (Figs. 4A-4Q). Spleens were harvested from 3 naive animals or from treated animals (6/group) on day 13. Splenocytes were co-cultured with CT26 cells, irrelevant 4T1 cells, or with media alone for 48 h. The concentration of IFN-γ secreted into the culture media was measured by ELISA. The dots that correspond to the top 3 responders of each group are circled and labeled with rankings. Response to a treatment is judged primarily by the final size of the tumor, and secondarily by the growth rate of the tumor between the last 2 measurements (Fig. 4R).

[00459] As provided herein, ibrutinib enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of aCTLA-4 in models of B-cell lymphoma and colon carcinoma. Combination therapy increased tumor infiltration by both helper and cytotoxic T cells. Combination therapy also generated a robust, tumor-specific immunologic memory. These data suggested that ibrutinib synergizes with immunomodulating agents/therapies (i.e., T-cell modulating therapies) to treat hematologic and solid tumors.

Example 2: The combination of ibrutinib and CTLA-4, PD-1, and PD-Ll inhibitors on responses in syngeneic murine solid tumor models

[00460] In this example, reference is made to Figures 6A-10E. Immunocompetent mice with matched genetic backgrounds were subcutaneously inoculated in the right flank with syngenic tumor cells from the following murine solid tumor models: Pan02 (pancreatic cancer); Renca (renal cell carcinoma); MBT-2 (bladder cancer); and MC38 (colon cancer). Treatment began when mean tumor size reached approximately 70-100 mm 3 .

[00461] Tumor and blood samples were collected at the tumor site or in peripheral compartments for tumor measurement by caliper and cytokine analysis by a Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) assay or a Luminex® Multiplex assay.

[00462] The effect of treatment on mouse tumor volume was measured in two dimensions using calipers and calculated with the following formula: tumor volume (mm 3 ) = ½ (tumor width[mm] 2 x length [mm]).

[00463] Tumors were measured twice per week until study termination on day 60.

Mice were individually monitored and euthanized when tumor volume reached the endpoint of 2000 mm 3 , or on the final day (day 60), whichever came first. The amount of time to reach the endpoint (tumor volume of 2000 mm 3 ) was measured for each mouse. Statistical analysis of sample t-tests and 1-way ANOVA (one-way analysis of variance) were used to make comparisons amongst groups. Ibrutinib and immunomodulating agent (anti-PD-1; anti-PD-Ll, or anti-CTLA-4) in mouse MBT-2 bladder cancer model

[00464] Ibrutinib was administered alone (orally, 48 mg/kg, once daily for 21 days); or in combination with one of the following immunomodulating agents: (1) anti-PD-1

(intrapentoneally, 100 μg/mouse, twice weekly for 3 weeks); (2) anti-PD-Ll

(intrapentoneally, 100 μg/mouse; twice weekly for 3 weeks); or (3) anti-CTLA-4

(intrapentoneally, 100 μg/mouse [day 1], 50 μg/mouse [days 4, 7, 10, and 13]).

[00465] As shown in Figures 6a and 6c, the administration of ibrutinib, either alone or in combination with PD-1 or CTLA-4 inhibitors, decreased tumor growth. Additionally, administration of a combination of ibrutinib and anti-PD-1 or a combination of ibrutinib and anti-CTLA-4, decreased tumor growth to a greater extent than administration of anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 alone.

[00466] As shown in Figures 6b, 6d, and 6e, administration of ibrutinib, either alone or in combination with an immunomodulating agent such as anti-CTLA-4, decreased T Fa levels.

Ibrutinib and immunomodulating agent (anti-PD-Ll) in mouse MBT-2 bladder cancer model

[00467] Ibrutinib was administered alone (orally, 48 mg/kg, once daily for 21 days), or in combination with anti-PD-Ll (intraperitoneally, 100 μg/mouse; twice weekly for 3 weeks). As shown in Figure 7, administration of ibrutinib, with PD-L1 inhibitor, improved survival, compared to administration of PD-L1 inhibitor alone.

Effect of ibrutinib with or without CTLA-4, PD-L or PD-L1 inhibitors on cytokine production and tumor growth in the mouse MC38 colorectal cancer model

[00468] Reference is made to Figures 8A-10E. Ibrutinib was administered alone

(orally at 48 mg/kg, once daily for 28 days), or in combination with one of the following immunomodulating agents: (1) anti-PD-1 (intraperitoneally, 100 μg/mouse, twice weekly for 3 weeks); (2) anti-PD-Ll (intraperitoneally, 100 μg/mouse; twice weekly for 3 weeks); or (3) anti-CTLA-4 (intraperitoneally, 100 μg/mouse, [day 1], 50 μg/mouse [days 4, 7, 10, and 13].

[00469] As shown in Figs. 8 A, 9A, and 10A, ibrutinib, with our without an

immunomodulating agent (anti-PD-1; anti-PD-Ll, or anti-CTLA-4), decreased tumor growth in the mouse MC38 colorectal model. Complete regression of established M38 tumors was observed with ibrutinib in combination with anti-CTLA-4. [00470] Figures 8D-E, 9D-E, and 10D-E show the effect of treatment on the secretion of VEGF and TNF-a in the mouse MC38 colorectal model. As shown in Figs. 10D-E, administration of the combination of ibrutinib and anti-CTLA-4 decreased the secretion of both TNF-a and VEGF, compared to the administration of anti-CTLA-4 alone. As shown in FIG. 9D, administration of the combination of ibrutinib and anti-PD-Ll decreased the secretion of both TNF-a and VEGF, compared to the administration of anti-PD-Ll alone.

[00471] As shown in Fig. IOC, administration of the combination of ibrutinib and anti-

CTLA-4 improves survival in the mouse MC38 colorectal model.
